Rogers Sony Ericsson Xperia arc OS 2.3.4 now available to download

By on November 24, 2011 at 7:03am in Mobile News, Rogers Wireless News


Sony Ericsson has delivered on a promise from August and have pushed out another Android OS upgrade. Rogers arc customers have been reporting for the past couple days that OS version 2.3.4 is now available to download, bringing a few changes to their beloved Android. If you have the arc, you can go forth and upgrade OTA (over the air).

(Thanks Jayme!)

  4. Got a friend with that one..

    Guess he chose it to be sure no one else had the same phone in a 100km radius. (He’s the one who bought it in Quebec City)

  5. Does this update give the phone that snappy little CRT-off animation when you lock the screen?

    • I’m in Toronto and I still don’t have it – I’ve been checking OTA periodically this morning but no luck.
      Anyone else attempted the manual approach?

  9. Does the manual approach delete your apps or remove the root?

    • Over-the-air updates keep all data, apps and root.
      PC Companion tells you if it’s a full wipe or an incremental upgrade.

      Google zergRush. It roots ALL Xperia firmwares.

  15. I have tried OTA and PC Companion, and both did not work for my arc LT15a. Any solutions, or ideas to as when Ottawa will get this update?

    • Check if usb debugging is selected. Unselect if it is. I couldnt get mine to work until i tried that.
